It's strong, lightweight and highly flexible, which means it can be shaped and rehashed for the perfect fit. Find out more about reshaping your acetate frames.

Our shades are the correct fit for more than 90% of our customers. But if you have a sizeable head and larger facial features than the average person, our shades might not fit you properly. If this is the case, you have two options:

We know you can’t wait to improve your appearance with your new pair of sunglasses, but you can expect delivery in 1 – 4 business days after purchase. Oh, and delivery is FREE because we’re in a good mood. Our shades are shipped from our UK warehouse in London - even on days when the weather is good.

Take note, delivery anywhere outside the EU will cost $10 and can take up to 14 working days. You'll also be required to pay minimal import duties by your country, but it'll be worth it though.

Once you set your eyes on your new sunglasses, you’ll want to keep them close. But if you’re on the shady side today, we’ll reluctantly take your MAWU item back in its original, unworn condition within 7 days of purchase.

If you break your new sunglasses, you’ll have to deal with the guilt, the shame and the horror on your own.

Take note, you cannot swap your shades for a different style. If you're making us pay for shipping back and forth, we'll kick you out so that your only option will be to buy less-cool shades that will cost you your life savings.

Get to Know Us

What’s in a name? Everything, when you name it after a God. Mawu is the creator goddess in African mythology who brings the cool nights after the hot African sun. But who really cares?

Mawu eyewear came about when two friends with different outlooks on life came together to build a shared dream of launching a global brand.

Greg, founder of a skate company and Marshy, a professional helicopter pilot had radically different approaches to life. Greg is all go-go-go from the start, where Marshy prefers to plan ahead.

But when it came to embarking on the epic venture of Mawu eyewear, the two friends were the perfect blend.

Greg and Marshy’s dream came to life on a helicopter trip above the African landscape. Greg’s favourite pair of shades fell out of the helicopter and faded away.

Greg loved these shades so much, that he was willing to go and search for them. But, that’s when the idea was sparked. Wouldn’t it be easier to start a sunglasses company than to burn a fortune for a new pair or search for the lost shades in the endless terrain?

Probably not, but they did it anyway.

With a “let’s do it” attitude, the two friends set out to build an audacious brand – offering uniqueness, quality and true exclusivity.
